About this readme file

This readme provides information about the patch available in this interim fix.

This fix can be installed on WebSphere Sensor Events 6.2.

Included in this interim fix

The following reported program defects are fixed in this update:

• IC69672: The following three issues are resolved when you apply this interim fix:
  • Optimize the performance of the Info Reusable Component by reducing the number of calls made to backend systems (forward-port of IC69665)
  • JMS Connection error when publishing many events to the EPCIS queue
  • Failure to pass correct authorization (HTTP 401) calling secured InfoSphere Traceability Server back-end because of missing EPCISIntegration service reference

Prerequisites
